In The Sky With Diamonds.
1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
Currently unemployed. Hobbies are sex, drugs, and rock n roll.
2. Where are you from?
Spoiled Bratland (Canada)
3. Who is your favorite author?
I can't pick just one. Stephen King. Kurt Vonnegut. John Irving.
Shadowland by Peter Straub.
Knots, R.D. Laing.
Catcher In The Rye, but only if I have cigarettes on hand.
The list goes on.
4. What are your favorite films?
The Neverending Story. Labyrinth. Horror movies, especially cheesy ones. The movies I watched when I was a kid. Obscure things. Movies that make you think. Or not be able to sleep at night.
5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Something no one else will like.
6. At your funeral?
Famous Blue Raincoat, not a cover, Lenny doing Lenny.
The Beatles, The Doors, and Pink Floyd.
7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Either by spontaneous (sp?) combustion or getting hit by a train.
8. What kind of casket would you want?
Cremation. I haven't decided yet what will happen to my ashes. I hope they go somewhere beautiful.
9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Changes all the time. Right now, probably my CBGBs shirt, skinny jeans, red Converse, and my boyfriend's sweater (I've been listening to a lot of punk lately).
10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Why is it always one thing, one thing? I miss my dad loving me best of all. I miss the way a child looks at the world. Innocence and apple pie. Fear. Crayons. Everything before school began. Purity. Nature. Being alone but not caring because I was too young to know what loneliness was.
11. What's your favorite band?
I like classic rock and punk, in that order. Currently. I don't have one favorite anything. My top three are The Beatles, The Doors, Pink Floyd.
12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher leave those kids alone
13. Why did you join?
Curiousity, memories, and boredom.
14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Guess.

Another Brick In The Wall is by Pink Floyd. Korn does a cover of it but Floyd is better, always.
No, I've never been married, but I am happily taken, forever.
Thanks for the greetings, everyone.

Well, there are British kids singing in part of the song. But I haven't heard of it done by children throughout, that sounds odd. But seriously, listen to the Floyd, not Korn, Floyyyyd. You'll learn to love it.

I will never understand how anyone could dislike the Beatles, but hey, everyone has different tastes.
I wish you luck finding Pink Floyd, though. My discovery of them was a joyous day indeed.

Someone saying they don't like The Beatles is like hearing someone say they don't like toast. Whats not to like? Whats there to hate?

Oh, I know. But I'll never like it and I'll never believe the education provided makes the world a better place. Education is well and good in its place. But forcing kids to sit in a classroom and learn about so many things that aren't important at all, taught by so many teachers that don't know how to do their job? That's what I object to. It's just not a good environment.

Education enables the world as we know it to exist. If we didn't have it, you'd be foraging from bushes, and retuning back to your cave to nibble on the berries you find.

Eh, what do you learn at school that isn't important?

Wonderbread is a mass production tasteless bread that, according to the ads, "Helps to build strong bodies 12 ways". You can smash a slice into a small ball and make animals with it like playdoh.
